  1. 1. Machine Learning Prediction of Enzymes’ Optimal Catalytic Temperatures

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för data- och informationsteknik

    Author : Camille Finlinson Porter; [2023-03-22]
    Keywords : enzyme; protein; amino acid; protein structure; optimal catalytic temperature;

    Abstract : Enzymes that have been genetically engineered to withstand high temperatures are used by industry to make products with less waste and pollution. Different features of protein structure affect the optimal catalytic temperature ("topt") at which enzymes catalyze reactions most efficiently. READ MORE

  3. 2. Design and Evaluation of Peptide Binders : In silico evaluation and comparison of generative AI for de novo peptide binder design

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Beräkningsbiologi och bioinformatik

    Author : Linde Brokmar; [2023]
    Keywords : Protein design; de novo design; protein engineering; generative ai; machine learning; peptide binders; AF2; EvoBind; RFdiffusion; ProteinMPNN;

    Abstract : Peptide binders are short proteins that bind to larger proteins. Due to peptide binders having high specificity and being cheap to synthesize, they are a prime candidate for drug design. Creating new proteins in silico can be divided into three steps: protein backbone generation, sequence design, and computational filtering. READ MORE

  4. 3. Modelling Large Protein Complexes

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Ho Yeung Chim; [2023]
    Keywords : Protein Modeling; Monte Carlo Tree Search; Protein Complex;

    Abstract : AlphaFold [Jumper et al., 2021, Evans et al., 2022] is a deep learning-based method that can accurately predict the structure of single- and multiple-chain proteins. However, its accuracy decreases with an increasing number of chains, and GPU memory limits the size of protein complexes that can be predicted. READ MORE

  5. 4. Assignment of heteronuclear methyl-NMR spectrum of the 44 kDa protein MALT1 Casp-IgL3

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Beräkningsbiologi och biologisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisation

    Author : Maria Levkovets; [2022]
    Keywords : MALT1; NMR; methyl-NMR; protein NMR; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma translocation protein 1 (MALT1) plays an important role in the immune pathway that controls the activation and proliferation of B and T cells. Dysregularization of this pathway leads to the development of highly aggressive lymphomas. READ MORE

  6. 5. Understanding the correlation between molecular structure of chilled dairy creams and the risk of environmental stress cracking in Tetra Pak® carton packages

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Livsmedelsteknik och nutrition (master)

    Author : Alejandra Fernandez Castaneda; [2022]
    Keywords : Cream; microestructure; environmental stress cracking; food technology and nutrition; Agriculture and Food Sciences;

    Abstract : Multilayer food packaging are lined with an inner layer of plastic and has excellent barrier properties. However, plastics lose their mechanical properties after being exposed to certain conditions; the combination of factors generates failures in the material such as the appearance of cracks, this phenomenon is known as environmental stress cracking (ESC).
